This work describes the glycophenotype evaluation of mice liver granulomatous lesion caused by infection of Schistosoma mansoni by using lectins labeled to acridinium ester (AE). The employed lectins were Concanavalin A (Con A), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) and Sambucus nigra agglutinin
Glycans and sugar-binding molecules (lectins) form an interactive recognition system, which may enable parasitic organisms to adhere to host cells and migrate into target tissues. The aim of the present study was to analyse surface-associated glycans in the developmental stages of Myxobolus
